Some info is shown in its original language.
Hidden away from the road in one of the best locations in Siargao, this recently renovated home with private garden is halfway between GL & Cloud 9, and just a 1 minute walk to the beach in front.

(Please note: as with most of Siargao due to the current rapid development of the island, there is a possibility of construction noise from nearby properties during daytime hours. Also on rare occasions after long periods of no rain, the water can turn slightly salty)

The space
This light and airy almost-beach house would be best described as contemporary tropical. The house is nestled away halfway between the beach road and the beach itself. It is just a 1 minute walk to the beach.

Downstairs, an open-plan living area comprises the living room, kitchen and dining room. Large windows and folding glass doors allow plenty of light and air to flow through the space.

Upstairs is a gallery style loft bedroom with high ceiling, aircon, and with a desk to use for work if required.


PLEASE NOTE:
You may read in some reviews about smelly water - this problem has now been fixed.

Guest access
Guests have exclusive use of the whole house (besides an external storage room which will be locked) and also the private garden.

There is a shared driveway providing access to the property, and there is plenty of parking space should guests decide to rent a car or motorbikes. Towards the road the driveway joins the path to the beach. The white sand beach has probably the best high tide swimming to be found on the island. This lagoon is also a great spot for SUPing, kayaking and kite surfing. It is a decent paddle or short boat ride across the lagoon to a few surf breaks along the reef.

Other things to note
A lovely local couple who have been our caretakers for 13 years will come and clean the house and the garden approximately every 4-5 days. The guy will happily climb the trees to get you fresh coconuts should you wish.

Neighborhood highlights

The house is in a friendly neighborhood, with a selection of good cafes and restaurants nearby. It is far enough away from Cloud 9 to not be part of this tourist hotspot, but close enough (less than 5 minute drive) for easy access to the waves and other nice places to eat.

After living on the island of Siargao in the Philippines for over 15 years, I now divide my time between there and Cornwall, UK. My husband and I live a quiet, simple life with our 2 daughters and 2 dogs. We love to surf and travel a lot, and we enjoy meeting new people from around the world and sharing what we know and love about Siargao and Cornwall.
